Homestay Story

Everything was perfect. Importantly, the family spoke to me in Korean only. This was challenging to them, as at first I understood zero and spoke zero. Fortunately, they never spoke in English to me and there was no shortcut to avoid this challenge. In three weeks, we progressively came to something that could look like dialogues, thank to their patience and understanding. I imagine that if I had stayed six months progressing like this, I would have reached real conversations with the family.

Life in a Korean family was the best way to learn something about Korean culture.
